We've been playing at Cooperton, Okla. for 14 years now. We started playing there in 1991. We've only missed on saturday nights when on vacation or of sickness. This saturday night the dance is free because of the 14th anniversary. Musicians are L-R:
Estelle ?-Bass, Marvin Linebarger-Fiddle, George Moore-Drums, Fred Bauman-Fiddle, Jim Harper-Steel and Jack Walbrick-Guitar.
Congrats Jim, sounds like everyone is going to have a good time. Ray Qualls |

Great picture Jim. The last I heard you were thinking about taking a summer job playing music at a Colorado Guest Ranch.
It's good to see that my old friend Fred Bauman has recovered from heart surgery and is again playing fiddle with your band. Take care!
